Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." St. Thomas Aquinas said: "The things we love tell us who we are!" With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry!
Below are two albums of pictures that I created:

Dear Family of Mary!

December 2, 2014

"Dear
children, remember - for I am telling you that love will win. I know
that many of you are losing hope because around you, you see suffering,
pain, jealousy, envy... But, I am your mother. I am in the Kingdom but
am also here with you. My Son is sending me anew to help you. Therefore,
do not lose hope, instead, follow me - because the victory of my heart
is in the name of God. My beloved Son is thinking of you as He has
always thought of you. Believe Him and live Him. He is the Life of the
world. My children, to live my Son means to live the Gospel. This is not
easy. This means love, forgiveness and sacrifice. This purifies and it
opens the Kingdom. Sincere prayer, which is not only words but is a
prayer which the heart speaks, will help you. Likewise fasting (will
help you), because it is still more of love, forgiveness and sacrifice.
Therefore, do not lose hope but follow me. I am imploring you anew to
pray for your shepherds so that they may always look to my Son who was
the first Shepherd of the world and whose family was the entire world.
Thank you."

In this message Our Lady tells us to believe Jesus and live Jesus. She says that "He is the life of the world."
These words are so true, but they are hard to understand. How can we
live Jesus? I believe that one of the ways we can live Jesus is by
letting Him live us. Jesus wants to live in us, to live our life with us
and in us. He will show us how to love, to forgive, to sacrifice, to
fast and to suffer. He will show us as He lives our life in us.

Caryll Houselander says it so well:

We
know what the Incarnation means to us, that God the Son, by becoming
human, caught up our human nature into his, made each one of us one with
him. He took our human nature for his own and gave us his. He
experienced everything that we do, except sin, and he even took upon
himself the guilt and punishment of sin.

He
made himself subject to our limitations: to discomfort, poverty, hunger
and thirst and pain. He knew fear, temptation, and failure. He suffered
loneliness, betrayal, unrequited love, utter desolation of spirit, the
sense of despair and death. He suffered all these things, and all the
secret, incommunicable things known to each individual, which can never
be told; and he overcame them all.

Christ
has lived each of our lives. He has faced all our fears, suffered all
our griefs, overcome all our temptations, labored in all our labors,
loved in all our loves, died all our deaths.

He
took our humanity, just as it is, with all its wretchedness and
ugliness, and gave it back to us just as his humanity is, transfigured
by the beauty of his living, filled full of his joy. So that no matter
what suffering we meet, we can meet it with the whole power of the love
that has overcome the world. (The Risen Christ. pp. 1-3)

Caryll's
words are comforting to me. The mystery of Jesus' Incarnation is a huge
comfort for us all. Jesus has lived our lives and He understands us
from the inside. He wants to unite with us in our individual lives, to
help us win through to His victory! He wants to live in us, and for us
to live in Him. Did He say so in John's Gospel? Isn't this living that
Gospel, letting Jesus live in us and us living Him?

"I
will not leave you desolate; I will come to you. Yet a little while,
and the world will see me no more, but you will see me; because I live,
you will live also. In that day you will know that I am in my Father,
and you in me, and I in you. (John 14 18-20)

This
is the promise of Jesus, that He is in us, we are in Him, and He is in
the Father. No longer do we live alone. We can actually live Jesus,
because He is in us, and we in Him.

Jesus
is the life of the world. Our Lady is working tirelessly to bring us
into that life, through her messages. May we draw ever closer to the
Incarnate Savior this Advent. We will not regret it!

Quotes from 'The Glories of Mary':

‘I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head.’

(Gen. 3:15)

“Since the devil is the head of original sin, this head it was that Mary crushed: for sin never had any entry into the soul of this Blessed Virgin, which was consequently free from all stain.”

MARY, OUR MOTHER

Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry!Below is a slide show of pictures that I have collected: Tears of Mary!

Have a look!

Jeremiah 14:17; 15:18

"Let my eyes shed down tears night and day, and let them not cease, because the Virgin daughter of my people is afflicted with an exceedingly grievous evil. / Why is my sorrow become perpetual, and my wound desperate so as to refuse to be healed?"

Ubi Petrus, ibi ecclesia, et ubi ecclesia vita eterna

Where Peter is, there is the Church, where the Church is there is Eternal Life

About Me

I'm 80, formally married to Marianne for 52 years, [Marianne passed away to the Lord on August 9th, 2013 after suffering a stroke and two cardiac arrests.] We have 4 children (plus 2 in heaven-stillborn) and nine grandchildren plus 1 Step-grandchild. I'm a Korean War Vet, U.S. Navy; I was a Motorcycle News Courier for U.P.I., and WNEW Chanel 5 TV News, during 60's & 70's; a Lieutenant in the Wycoff Hospital Police in the 90's. I was ordained a Permanent Deacon for the Brooklyn Diocese on April 25, 1987 and served in four parishes before relocating to Florida in 2002. I'm still incardinated for Brooklyn Diocese. There was no parish in my town so we traveled to either Mt. Dora or Eustis for Mass. My oldest son and daughter, John and Anne, lived near us but the rest of the gang are up North in New York and Pennsylvania. We have now relocated to a northern state and my ministry is mostly on the Internet with some blogs and groups. I also assist the pastor at the local Catholic church. I owe my life and conversion/calling to Our Lady of Mt. Carmel de Garabandal, who has brought me to her Son Jesus. I am Their servant and slave! I only want to do the Will of God and glorify the Most Blessed Trinity with my life!

PSALM 71 SPEAKS TO MY HEART

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;let me never be put to shame!In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;incline your ear to me, and save me!

Be to me a rock of refuge,to which I may continually come;you have given the command to save me,for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.For you, O Lord, are my hope,my trust, O Lord, from my youth.Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;you are he who took me from my mother's womb.My praise is continually of you.

I have been as a portent to many,but you are my strong refuge.My mouth is filled with your praise,and with your glory all the day.Do not cast me off in the time of old age;forsake me not when my strength is spent.

For my enemies speak concerning me;those who watch for my life consult togetherand say, “God has forsaken him;pursue and seize him,for there is none to deliver him.”

O God, be not far from me;O my God, make haste to help me!May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;with scorn and disgrace may they be coveredwho seek my hurt.

But I will hope continuallyand will praise you yet more and more.My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,of your deeds of salvation all the day,for their number is past my knowledge.

With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

O God, from my youth you have taught me,and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

So even to old age and gray hairs,O God, do not forsake me,until I proclaim your might to another generation,your power to all those to come.Your righteousness, O God,reaches the high heavens.You who have done great things,O God, who is like you?

You who have made me see many troubles and calamitieswill revive me again;from the depths of the earthyou will bring me up again.You will increase my greatnessand comfort me again.

I will also praise you with the harpfor your faithfulness, O my God;I will sing praises to you with the lyre,O Holy One of Israel.My lips will shout for joy,when I sing praises to you;my soul also, which you have redeemed.

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long, for they have been put to shame and disappointedwho sought to do me hurt.

Welcome to my Marian Blog

As you can tell from my postings, I'm in love with Mother Mary, who has taken me under her mantle of protection, has taught and led me to Her Divine Son, Jesus; Who in turn has led me, in the Holy Spirit, to the Eternal Father! Two prayers that I say often tell who I am:Come O Holy Spirit; Come by means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Your well-beloved Spouse.

O Most Holy Trinity, I adore Thee. My God, my God, I love Thee in the Most Blessed Sacrament.
